As a new mother in 2016, Tash Gorst was scrolling through her phone when she fell

down the rabbit hole of reading about plastic pollution. Fast-forward to 2019 and she had

opened Gather, an organic zero-waste shop.

Customers come to Gather to refill their own containers with everything from rice to

beauty products. And it’s not only the produce that is sustainable — the shop is powered by

renewable energy and financed by a more sustainable bank, while all the units inside have

been made from waste materials, mostly by Gorst herself.

Zero-waste shops have become an increasingly common feature on the streets in recent

years. Where they have gone, supermarkets now look set to follow, with Morrisons, Marks

& Spencer and Waitrose all recently agreeing to add refill stations in shops by the end of

this year. Meanwhile, Asda has introduced refill aisles (过道) to more of its supermarkets

following successful trials.

As small startup businesses aiming to make responsible decisions without cutting

ethical (道德上的) corners, refill shops tend to be more expensive than supermarkets and

chains. Gorst acknowledges that not everyone can afford to buy from them.

“But if you can, you should. You’ll feel good about the small decision that you’ve

made in contributing to your local economy and doing something that’s better for the

planet,” she says.

Emily Drabble is a regular Gather customer. She buys everything that would “normally

be encased in plastic”, from cleaning products to food like pasta, which she puts into glass

containers. “When I get home, I love unpacking my shopping, throwing nothing in the bin,”

Drabble says.

And customers at refill shops get more than just physical goods, notes Gorst. Besides

employing four local people, Gather, for example, holds free events, including a monthly

book club for reading about sustainability, workshops for kids and so on. “I also see it as a

place to bring people together,” she says.

Saying farewell to someone you love, even for a night, can be difficult, much less

saying goodbye for a lifetime or forever in death. Juliet bid Romeo farewell for the evening

with the words, “Parting is such sweet sorrow.” Sweet sorrow is an

oxymoron(矛盾修辞法). But this seeming contradiction is true in the context of

relationships.

Relationships are based on feelings, emotions, and passion. Deep friendships and

loving relationships are measured by the level of emotional attachment. Emotions intensify

over time. People spend time with the people they like. The more one person likes another

person, the closer the relationship becomes. Each person in the relationship receives an

emotional benefit from knowing the other person.

Saying goodbye means separating from the people who make up a significant part of

your emotional identity. Separation, even a temporary absence, from the people you have a

deep emotional connection with can cause sorrow because you will no longer be able to

enjoy their company.

The sweet side of saying goodbye is the emotional fulfillment of being in a close

relationship. The time spent together is emotionally rewarding, especially if that person is

seen as a soulmate. Humans are social beings. We seek the love and comfort of other

people. Loneliness devastates the human condition and leads to sadness. Sad people will do

anything they can to find fulfilling relationships. Likewise, happy people will do anything

they can to maintain or enhance relationships. Here lies the essential point of the emotional

problem.

The more intense relationships become, the more devastating the emotional loss that is

felt upon separation. The excitement of relationships cannot be truly measured without

experiencing the overwhelming loss of a deep emotional connection.

Enjoy the company of the person you are with as long as you can; knowing the pain

you will feel at the end of the relationship is the true measure of the relationship. If it

doesn’t hurt to say goodbye, perhaps it wasn’t worth saying hello.

8. Which of the word group can create the same effect as “sweet sorrow”?

A. icy cold

B. clicking sound

C. deafening silence

D. endless speech

9. What can we learn from paragraph 3?

A. Saying goodbye is unavoidable in our daily life.

B. The companion of close friends can lessen sorrow.

C. A person’s identity is connected with relationship.

D. Separation is the sorrowful part of saying goodbye.

10. What gives a person emotional satisfaction in social life?

A. Making more communication with others.

B. Building deep emotional connections with others.

C. Comforting friends with love and intense feelings.

D Being a thoughtful person by standing in others’ shoes.

11. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Sweet sorrow is very common in close relationships.

B. The pain of separation is the measure of relationships.

C. Human beings are eager to get emotional fulfillment.
